Delivery during Pandemic I: Chifa

Chifa's outside

Little by little we are returning to "the new normality" and for some time now, we have access to some great restaurants through a delivery previously unimaginable.

One of the good things that this horrible crisis has brought is that digitalization has been radical and many restaurants have had to move out of their comfort zone creating new on-line services.  

We will start to write about our favourites delivery restaurants in Madrid, hoping that our recommendatios will be of interest to you. 

Our first great delivery service experience has been the Peruvian Chinese restaurant Chifa.  Their new delivery is called A gogó.

Poke Bowl Invasion

This is Poke!

There is an indisputable trend going on in Madrid for the last months, I am talking about Poke. I first heard about it a year ago, I was told that hawaiian surfers were very fond about it and I was surprised by its simplicity and freshness. Poke is all about raw fish cut in dices with vegetables and usually a basis of rice served in a bowl with a great variety of other possible ingredients like vegetables and sauces.

Tapan - Japanese Tapas Bar in Chamberí

If you fancy authentic Japanese food and do not want to spend big sums I have a good tip for you: Tapan in Chamberi, 46 Bretón de los Herreros. It is a real Japanese Tapas Bar owned and managed by two Japanese young cooks who had the good idea to merge Spanish traditions, such as “menu del día” and “tapas” with Japanese gastronomy. 

Tuk tuk and Deliveroo’s special discount for My little Madrid readers

I have recently discovered the only Asian street food restaurant that exists in Madrid: TUK TUK Street food   It has been a great surprise because they have a nice selection of food from Thailand, Hong Kong and Singapour. In fact, when you go there you get a mild feeling of travelling to Asia, where it is quite common to eat all kind of different foods in the streets: tasty, cheap and all in small bites.
